Social Organization of Baleen Whales

open access: yes, 2022
Baleen whales are specialized to find and exploit prey that form dense patches seasonally within broad ocean areas. Most populations have an annual reproductive cycle that separates their breeding season from their feeding season, often with long ...

Growth of baleen along the baleen rack is constant in balaenopterid whales

Polar Biology, 2021
Werth et al. (Werth et al. Polar Biol 43:707–723, 2020) propose that in all mysticete whales the growth rate of baleen varies with the position they occupy in the mouth. If this were true, comparison between individuals and studies of results of chemical tracers in baleen would be compromised. Here we compile results from previous research conducted in

Age Determination in Baleen Whales (Mystacoceti)

Nature, 1965
THE determination of the age of cetaceans is of importance for the organization of a rational exploitation of their stock. Age determination of baleen whales by the layers of ear plugs1,2 does not always give accurate results and raises several technical difficulties3.

Juvenile morphology in baleen whale phylogeny

Naturwissenschaften, 2014
Phylogenetic reconstructions are sensitive to the influence of ontogeny on morphology. Here, we use foetal/neonatal specimens of known species of living baleen whales (Cetacea: Mysticeti) to show how juvenile morphology of extant species affects phylogenetic placement of the species.

Phylogenetics of Baleen Whales

open access: yes, 2010
At present, there are 15 species of baleen whales that belong to the monophyletic suborder Mysticeti. The family-level designations of Balaenidae (right and bowhead whales) and Neobalaenidae (pygmy right whales) are strongly supported and well resolved ...

On the evolution of baleen whales

Science, 2018
Evolutionary Biology Baleen whales include the largest animals that have ever lived, but their evolutionary history has been difficult to decipher because of conflicting evidence from genes and morphology. Arnason et al. conducted whole-genome sequencing of the blue whale and five other baleen species to reconstruct their evolutionary history in detail.

A newly discovered species of living baleen whale

Nature, 2003
In the late 1970s eight Balaenoptera specimens of unknown identity were caught in the lower latitudinal Indo-Pacific waters by Japanese research whaling vessels. The combination of the allozyme patterns and physical maturity of the eight specimens separated them from all acknowledged Balaenoptera species.
